Keep Sweets in the Bathroom

Forget lavender or "fresh rain"--these days, lots of beauty products are turning to the kitchen for inspiration. To help cut cravings, try out a few of these lotions and potions in the bath, since associating the smell of cookies or chocolate with your grooming time might make you less likely to want to eat them later. Available at Sephora, Philosophy makes 3-in-1 body and hair cleansers in tantalizing scents like Cinnamon Buns, Waffle Cone, Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream, Vanilla Birthday Cake, White Chocolate Hazelnut Cake and Crumb Berry Pie. (The line also includes lip shines in such flavors as Powdered Sugar Cookie, Frozen Lemon Custard and Raspberry Sorbet, and lotions that correspond to the bath gels.) Chocolate-scented or -infused products abound: Sephora Chocolate Body Glosser, Hard Candy Bon Bon Lip Glosses, and Origins' Cocoa Therapy line (including lip balm, body scrub and candle) all smell of the sweet stuff.
